Classes

The Salmon Arm studio started as a dream, sketched out in an afternoon and grown over the past few years. It is the place to indulge in a little clay play with amazingly well versed instructors.

The Workshop at Salmon Arm is a place to grow, learn, have fun and be a part of the community. This studio is the first step in some day creating a larger art residency program. The goal is to add many forms of art instruction to the Shuswap area.

At this time we are only offering six week adult courses. The time-line or resuming additional course offering continues to be pushed due to staff shortages. We have no anticipated start date for kids classes. We will be running date night/ pottery wheel experiences  and single evening handbuilding courses in the summer months. Sorry for the inconvenience and we will update this information as soon as it changes.
